Protection of personal data – Personal data policy

Laboratoire France Lait

The processing of personal data, which is sometimes of a sensitive nature, and respecting your right to privacy are our top priority.
Their protection is one of our major concerns, and all efforts are made to ensure their security.

FRANCE LAIT is committed to complying with the legislation in effect on personal data and privacy protection and, more specifically, the European regulation for the protection of personal data (hereafter referred to as the “GDPR”).

Respecting the use of your data is a priority for FRANCE LAIT. In view of this:

  • We do not sell your data
  • We protect your data by ensuring its privacy
  • We only collect the data required
  • We have appointed a representative for the protection of personal data (also called a DPO for Data Protection Officer)
  • We keep our processing records up-to-date
  • We educate our employees about the GDPR
  • We update our contracts with clients, suppliers and sub-contractors

The objective of this Privacy Policy (hereafter referred to as the “Privacy Policy”) is therefore:

  • to allow you to disclose your personal information in complete confidence and privacy,
  • to inform you of the purposes for which data are processed by FRANCE LAIT
  • and generally speaking, to inform you of your rights regarding personal data.

Terms and definitions

Personal data

This concerns any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. An “identifiable natural person” is a natural person who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by referring to an identifier such as a name or identification number, location data, an online username, or to one or more factors specific to their physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity.

The data controller

Your personal data is collected and processed by a legal entity. This is referred to as the “data controller” when it is the entity which determines the purposes and means of processing.

Designated Data Protection Officer

The Data Protection Officer, also called the DPO, is your main contact should you wish to exercise your rights or for any issue relative to the protection of personal data.

The French Data Protection Authority (CNIL)

The CNIL, created in 1978, is an administrative authority responsible for the protection of personal data. It supports companies in ensuring compliance and helps private individuals in controlling their personal data and exercising their rights.

The right of access

You may request that the organisation concerned disclose any and all data they possess concerning you. This right also allows you to verify the accuracy of your data and, if necessary, to have it rectified or erased.

The right to rectification

You may request the rectification of inaccurate or incomplete information concerning you.

The right to object

You may object to the use of your data for certain processing purposes. The exercise of this right depends on the purpose and the legal basis for the processing and will be assessed on a case by case basis.

The right to data portability

You may request retrieval of your personal data in a commonly used and machine-readable format. You can also request that the organisation processing your personal data have it transmitted to another organisation. This right only applies to processing based on consent or on a contract.

The right to erasure or the right to be forgotten

You may request that your personal data be erased.The execution of this right is subject to case by case assessment.

The right to restriction of processing

You may request the temporary interruption of all processing until such time as the organisation concerned examines your request regarding one of the rights previously mentioned. The organisation will thus be required to stop using your data but will continue to store it.

The post-mortem right

You can define the instructions regarding the storage, erasure and disclosure of your personal data following your death. The execution of this right is subject to case by case assessment.

5. How is your personal data protected?

FRANCE LAIT is committed to ensuring the security of data that you transmit to us. Appropriate technical and organisational measures have been taken to protect the data collected in order to block all unauthorised access, use, modification, destruction, loss, damage or disclosure.
In particular, the security of your data is ensured:

  • thanks to username and password protection for your personal account
  • and by limiting access to your data to authorised and informed individuals only (e.g. only those members of FRANCE LAIT or their employees who need access for the purposes indicated above).

  • service providers performing certain services on our behalf,
  • and subject to your informed, active, explicit and prior consent, we may share your personal data with other entities of FRANCE LAIT or with partners so that they may solicit you for the purposes of commercial prospecting.

We may also disclose your personal data to any potential buyer in the event of the sale of FRANCE LAIT or its assets.

We reserve the right to disclose your personal data to other parties when required or permitted by law, a regulatory provision in effect, a court order or a regulation or if such disclosure is necessary in the course of an investigation or proceeding within or outside of the country.

In addition to the aforementioned scenarios, we may disclose data of a non-personal nature to third-parties, such as aggregated, anonymous statistical data.

7. How long is your personal data retained for?

Data can only be stored for a limited period. This period is determined according to the purpose of the processing and the rules derived from the recommendations of the French data protection authority (CNIL) or in accordance with regulatory requirements.

If you have given your consent for the data processing, you also have the right to withdraw it.

These rights may be exercised at any time:

• Either by post addressed to:

FRANCE LAIT
Attention: Data Protection Officer (DPO)
102 RD 906
SAINT-MARTIN-BELLE ROCHE
CS 20309
71009 MACON
France

• Or by email at:

dpo@regilait.fr

Postage fees related to your postal request will be reimbursed based upon the second-class postage in effect in France for letters of up to 20g, provided that a written request for reimbursement is sent at the same time, in order to ensure that the exercise of this right is free of charge. Expenses relating to photocopying any supporting documents to be provided will be reimbursed in the amount of €0.15 per page, including taxes.

Given that currently among service and technology providers, most internet service providers offer a free or flat-rate internet connection to users, it is explicitly agreed that any access to the website or to your email account is carried out on a free or flat-rate basis. Thus, it cannot be reimbursed, in that your subscription to the service provider is contracted in this case for your general internet use and the fact that connecting to the website or your email account to exercise your rights does not entail any additional fees or disbursements on your part. Therefore, only the costs incurred by connections for the purpose of exercising your rights carried out via an internet service provider that bills access based on time spent will be reimbursed (i.e. connections using a modem and via a telephone line billed on a pro rata basis of time spent on the call or per call).
Subscriptions to internet service providers or telephone operators and IT or telephone equipment (e.g. computer, tablet, smartphone, connected device of any kind… non-exhaustive list) may not be reimbursed given that you subscribed and/or purchased it for your own general personal use.

You also have the right to file a claim with the French data protection authority (CNIL) or a data protection authority of a European Union member state and to determine post-mortem instructions.

With regard to processing carried out to ensure the appropriate supervision of money laundering and terrorist financing risks pursuant to Article L.561-45 of the French Monetary and Financial Code, your requests for access to these files must be addressed to:

Commission Nationale Informatique et Libertés
3 place de Fontenoy
75007 Paris
France

As for commercial prospecting, you may choose at any time to no longer receive commercial prospecting by using the unsubscribe link found in each message that is sent to you by e-mail.

In the event of unwanted telephone solicitation for the purpose of commercial prospecting, you can sign up free of charge for the do-not-call list (BLOCTEL). For further information, you can visit the website www.bloctel.gouv.fr
